Five to Five seem to be the one most of the Take That superfans are supporting so it all seems inevitable.

The bands' names have clearly been assigned to subliminally influence the voting proclivities of certain audience sectors.

Or, it could just be the usual state of affairs that the Kremlin has fixed the vote.

These twists are just a foil to manipulate the chosen ones to the final. They ought to call the winning band The Chosen. Totally agree, it was so obvious Saturday night, this way they get to track all the 'seasoned' west end performers who they know can dance/act/sing to the final show and remove the ones they don't fancy. |

I'm actually glad they're doing that because in every band there's at least one person that doesn't seem up to the task. That's what you get when you put them in bands after the auditions. They should have kept them individually and then at the end just picked the best 5 guys. |

But now it's only 8 weeks, which is also quite short. |

At least they will shoehorn a Take That performance featuring Robbie Williams into final week to plug their new single and tour

Only 2 groups managed to nail the vocals in the opening. The first one and then some trio of old guys who weren't too bad

Why are they bothering to carry on? Five to Five are clearly the strongest team!

Iron Sun's vocals are all over the place - very little strength or understanding of the genre until Alexis got his solo.
Choreography is not as demanding as Five to Five

The last note of Iron Sun's song was horrible.

Not as horrible as the vocals throughout Drive's number - which was weak on all fronts

"Kimberly Walsh has come along to give the band some advice"
This is like a comedy!

Nightfall was just a series of solos with very little harmony work
Choreo was bland as well. Too wide age range for them to be a credible boy band - just looks creepy

Was I watching a different Nightfall performance?
I thought some of that singing was very suspect.

I'm catching up with this show and have watched tonight's episode, plus the previous two. Last week I thought there were three pretty good groups (the ones that got through) and actually thought Iron Sun were particularly fun. This week Five to Five was the strongest by quite a bit, but I still think that tall red-haired Scottish (I think) drummer guy from Iron Sun has something special about him - could imagine somehow his being winkled into the final group, if such a thing can happen.

That is the fairest result - but Five to Five are head and shoulders above Nightfall - the audience reaction was clear on that. It would be interesting to see the voting stats
